Pluralization of Noun

In Melo, nouns pluralize in two different ways. It depends on whether the noun is nominative or accusative. In both cases, nouns pluralize with the suffix “-ita”. It forms by these steps:

1. The plural marker is “-ita”. The plural marker is added after the root noun.
2. Depending on the case, a noun must take a case marker as suffix after the -ita. For nominative the case marker is “-y” and for accusative the case marker is “-a”. The plural marker(-ita) is inseparable from the case marker (-y and-a).
3. If there is a vowel at the end of the noun, it will be removed. For instance, kana(dog) become kan-ita-ya(dogs). And if there is consonant, it will stay the same. For instance, šooš (snake) stays šooš-ita-y(snakes).

When the noun is nominative,

Noun	Plural marker	Case marker	Verb	Tense Marker (Perfective)	Afflictive Declarative Marker
1	kap	ita	y	pir	-e	-z
	The birds			fly
2	šooš	ita	y	ye?	-e	-z
	The snakes			come

When the noun is accusative,

Subject	Noun		Plural marker		Case marker	Verb	Tense Marker (Perfective)	Afflictive Declarative Marker
1	ta	kap		ita		a	be?	-e	-z
	I	The birds					see
2	e	šooš	ita		a		wood	-e	-z
	He	The snakes					kill

All plural nouns are considered as definitive.
